Best option for custom keycaps now that WASD Keyboards is gone?
« on: Thu, 06 February 2025, 05:01:17 »
I've used WASD Keyboards several times for custom keycaps, both full sets and individual one-off keycaps.  I was saddened to discover just now that they've closed shop.

Who are the best alternatives for this kind of thing?

Thank you, hadn't seen this before!

One question (I am probably missing something obvious). Looking under Custom Keycaps there are three lists: Layout, Keyboard, and Language. Clicking "more..." at the bottom of any of these lists takes me directly to the editor. Do you know how I can see the full lists?

Founder of Thockfactory here! The complete list is in the configurator itself, at the top left where the layout selector is. There are about 100 layouts implemented currently, but if you need something specific I can send you a custom config file for it :thumb:

Hey everyone!  ;D If you’re into custom mechanical keyboards, you should definitely check out Gimsun Custom. They’ve got all kinds of layouts and keycap styles, and you can even customize your own design. Take a look here: https://gimsuncustom.com/
